More about Christian military boarding schools near Missouri: Missouri is a US state located in the Midwestern United States, bordered by Iowa, Illinois, Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Kansas and Nebraska. Missouri is the 21st most extensive and the 18th most populous of the 50 United States. Missouri comprises 114 counties and the independent city of St. Louis. The four largest urban areas are St. Louis, Kansas City, Springfield, and Columbia. Missouri’s capital is Jefferson City. The land that is now Missouri was acquired from France as part of the Louisiana Purchase and became known as the Missouri Territory. Part of the Territory was admitted into the union as the 24th state on August 10, 1821. Missouri mirrors the demographic, economic and political makeup of the nation (in general) with a mix of urban and rural culture. It has long been considered a political bellwether state. With the exceptions of 1956 and 2008, Missouri’s results in U.S. presidential elections have accurately predicted the next President of the United States in every election since 1904. It has both Midwestern and Southern cultural influences, reflecting its history as a border state. It is also a transition between the Eastern and Western United States, as St. Louis is often called the “western-most Eastern city” and Kansas City the “eastern-most Western city.” Missouri’s geography is highly varied. The northern part of the state lies in dissected till plains while the southern part lies in the Ozark Mountains (a dissected plateau), with the Missouri River dividing the two. The confluence of the Mississippi and Missouri Rivers is located near St. Louis. The starting points of the Pony Express Trail and Oregon Trail were both in Missouri. The mean center of United States population as of the 2010 Census is at the town of Plato in Texas County, Missouri.

My grandson entered Agape under duress at age 14, a know it all who wouldn’t go to school. The staff at this school turned him around, in effect, replacing his missing father. He graduated as valedictorian this year. I can’t say enough about how this school helped him. He has…

We had two problem sons, both adopted from bad home backgrounds and who had serious issues. Agape was exactly what they needed and the school did wonders for them. It is a wonderful place that teaches respect, Biblical knowledge and principles and where they genuinely love the boys. They also…

I was the typical ‘know it all, you can’t tell me anything’ boy was I wrong! I went to the school when I was 15. After I graduated I stayed on for a year to help out as best I can. The school taught me a lot about myself, and…

I was not a kid into drugs or anything, I was just plain rebellious. Agape broke it out of me and I thank God He intervened and allowed me to change. The education is tremendous and the biblical beliefs are great. I love Agape and thank the Lord for a…

I enrolled my brilliant but unchallenged 15 year old son at Agape Boarding school in the fall of 2004. His grades had been slipping; he wasn’t a bad kid but starting to get into the wrong crowd and not try to succeed in school. After 4 months at Agape he…

Agape helped us with an out-of-control son; we had nowhere else to turn. Agape’s prices are better than many other so-called teen boarding programs. Our son is a better person today because of Agape. He never would have graduated from school, and possibly wouldn’t have ever become a Christian without…

Agape has saved the life of my son as well as the rest of the family. My son was adopted at age 7 from a third world country. He had spent his entire life in a bad orphanage. Upon arrival, his behavior was utterly out-of-control — though family, teachers and…

I made the difficult decision at Christmas time to send my son, and remember thinking, “God gave His only son and never got Him back alive, how blessed I am that I WILL get mine back better than when I handed him over” and had no idea how far Agape…

Look as long and hard as you want, but you won’t find a better all boys school that promotes Christian morals for your son. My son has completed 2 years at Agape and I couldn’t be prouder of his achievements and growth. Over the past year I had been hunting…

About 1 1/2 yrs. ago,we, as parents were in the position of desperately searching for the right place for our 13 y.o. son. I know what to look for in a school, through the MANY hours of “Googling”, searching, calling, reviewing. Nothing compares to the whole package we have found…

I was a student at Agape` and I’m glad I was. The staff truly cared about and loved us and wanted the best for us. They would give the shirt off their backs for you, if needed, to see you succeed in life. The facility was first class and things…

Former Student

The main thing I can say about Agape is that it helped me put my life in perspective. People cared, and I have more good memories there then I do in my life now. I can say I loved each and every person there.

The deepest pain as a parent is dealing with a wayward child. Agape has been used by the Lord to make this reality much less painful in our lives. In the midst of the hurt and pain in our son’s life, Agape has been Jesus’ hands and feet, showing unconditional…

I truly believe in Agape and would like to share it with other parents who are in a difficult dark part of their lives our children are our world and it is heartbreaking to see your son destroy himself and the whole family!

One of the places I love to travel to and be a part of the ministry is at the Agape Baptist Church and boarding school. It is literally changing lives and is a great place to be. I heartily recommend it to any parent who has a boy that needs…

Dr. Gary L. Mann (Evangelist)

I went to Agape the summer of ’05. My life at that moment wasn’t God honoring and I never truly understood what it meant to be a Christian. After being at the school for little over a month I noticed some things about these people that caught me a little…

Phillip (Former Student)

Agape has been a great decision for our son. At home he was angry, suicidal, doing drugs, hanging with the wrong crowd, cutting himself. At Agape he has gotten saved, baptized, learned the Bible, finished high school, matured, and faced problems that we couldn’t get him to face. Agape saved…

Marla (Parent)

Coming to the realization that in order to save my young son’s life, I needed to send him away, was the most difficult and painful decision I have ever made. After researching everything from hospitals to military schools, I finally called Agape and truly felt a sense of peace and…

Agape was the changing point in his life. We are so glad to have our son back not the scary young man who was here before. He is getting good grades in school. Keeping a job and becoming a leader at school. He attributes his change of heart and mind…

The peace of mind that that we have found with Agape that comes from knowing our son is being cared for and is making progress in school is irreplaceable. Our whole family is better off. His mother and I can sleep soundly, knowing our son is safe. We are sure…

Brent (Parent)

This will be a very difficult decision to follow through with. Leaving your son with the staff at Agape Boarding School will test your faith. What helped us in this deciding on Agape was to take a tour before we made the final decision. I talked with the staff multiple…
